So I have had this improved drawf meyer lemon tree for about 6 months (I got it when it was about 1 year old), it is in a pot and has produced many lemons. It was doing great in San Francisco. I just moved to Seattle and I knew it would be too cold for it to be outside so I have kept it inside and I got a sun light for it. It has recently produced a ton of flowers all over it, but I don't see any tiny lemons starting to grow. I was wondering if it was normal for lemons trees this time of year to produce lots of flowers but not as much fruit and it I should be picking some of the flowers off. Any other advice would be great I have never grown a lemon tree before, especially about repotting it I haven't repotted it yet but I know I need to soon, I just don't want it to die.
If it is indoors now the bees probably cannot polinate it, try putting it outside if warm enough or polinating with a Q-Tip.
You can hand pollinate your Meyer lemon is you desire, but you certainly do not need to. Your tree will produce just about the same amount of fruit with or with hand pollinating. All of the questions, and more, you ask have been answered on this forum many times, and can be found using the search function above. Citrus produce many times the number of blooms than fruit that will eventually be produced. Approximately 1-2 percent of the blooms will become mature fruit. If you put the words "re-potting" or "repotting" in the search function you will find many threads on this subject. - Millet
